  1. Airmanship 2 Leading Cadet Training Rules of the Air Lecture 4

  2. Introduction Without the Highway Code cars on the road would find it impossible to move about safely. There are also rules to govern how aircraft move about the sky, to avoid accidents. They are called “Right of Way” rules.

  3. Rights of Way All other types of aircraft must give way to balloons. Gliders have right of way over both powered aircraft and airships. Airships must give way to both gliders and balloons. Conventional powered aircraft must give way to balloons, gliders and airships.

  4. Rights of Way Everything gives way to balloons. Airships & powered aircraft give way to gliders. Powered aircraft give way to airships. Powered aircraft give way to everything.

  5. Rights of Way When approaching head on, each aircraft must alter course to the Starboard (Right).

  6. Rights of Way When on converging courses at the same height, the aircraft with the other on its Starboard (Right) must give way.

  7. Rights of Way When overtaking, the aircraft beingovertaken has the‘right of way’. The overtaking one must avoid by turningRight.

  8. Rights of Way Landing An aircraft landing, or on final approach to land, has right of way over aircraft in flight or on the ground.

  9. Rights of Way Landing When two or more aircraft are approaching to land, the lower one has right of way.

  10. Rights of Way On the Ground Aircraft and vehicles being taxied give way to aircraft being towed. Vehicles not towing give way to aircraft being taxied.

  11. Rules at Night Aircraft have different styles of Navigation Lights. Navigation Lights: A balloon has one RED light suspended 5 to 10 metres below the basket.

  12. Rules at Night Aircraft have different styles of Navigation Lights. Navigation Lights: An airship in flight, has WHITE lights fore & aft, with GREEN on top and RED below A stationary airship, has WHITE lights fore & aft, with two RED lights suspended below

  13. Rules at Night Aircraft have different styles of Navigation Lights. Navigation Lights: A glider has a central RED light

  14. Rules at Night Aircraft have different styles of Navigation Lights. Navigation Lights: Conventional powered aircraft have a WHITE light at the rear, a RED light to port and a GREEN light to starboard

  15. Rules at Night If pilot(A) looks out to starboard and sees a REDlight moving alongside (B), He knows that the other aircraft has right of way and he must take action to avoid a collision. Converging:

  16. Rules at Night Pilot(A) sees a GREEN light crossing port to starboard, and knows pilot(B) should give way. He must be aware that pilot (B) might not have seen him and should be ready to take avoiding action. Converging:

  17. Check Understanding What must give way to a glider? Only Powered Aircraft Powered Aircraft and Airships Only Airships Everything

  18. Check Understanding What must give way to a powered aircraft? Everything Nothing Balloons Airships

  19. Check Understanding When approaching head on, in which direction must aircraft alter course? Starboard Port Upwards Downwards

  20. Check Understanding Which of the following do NOT have ‘Right of Way’? An aircraft being overtaken. An aircraft overtaking. An aircraft landing, over aircraft in flight. • An aircraft on final approach, • over an aircraft below.

  21. Check Understanding What navigation lights does a stationary airship show? One RED light suspended below WHITE lights fore and aft, with two RED lights suspended below. Two RED lights suspended below WHITE lights fore and aft, with GREEN on top and RED below

  22. Check Understanding Conventional powered aircraft have which navigation lights? Green to port and Red to starboard Red to port and Green to starboard White to port and Red to starboard Green to starboard and White to port

  23. Check Understanding If you look out to starboard and see a RED light moving alongside, what action should you take? Take immediate avoiding action Wait for the other aircraft to take avoiding action None, it’s a stationary airship Expect the other aircraft to take avoiding action But be ready to take action yourself.
